Fishing for and catching coho salmon out of Westport on the Pacific Ocean! Pics to follow.

Went Friday with a friend on his boat. Boy, it was rough with a west wind against the outgoing tide, we were rolling! Fishing 55-75 and got our 4 coho! My buddy forgot the landing net, no worries, I told him, "We'll just act like commercial salmon trollers. They don't use a net, just get the...

6 more this morning with Peter and another fishing friend. 55-65 early. 70-80 around 10:30 am. Man, coho fishing is tremendous this year!

WZ: Chinook retention ended 8/31 in Area 10. I think people targeting them were doing well up until the end. Dwight, is "coconuts" code for coho? Maybe you could give us a Winter Harbor report on a separate thread.

I have fished this area 3 times in the past week and the Coho are in! 2 Limits this morning by 8:30 am fishing with Peter Jamero fellow C-Brat. 3 limits this past Saturday. Using hoochies and flashers. My go-to rigs have been the dark green Ace Hi Fly behind a red stripe green flasher. The...

The more you fish, the better you get at it, pure and simple.

I like to only drop back my bait/lure about 15 feet behind the boat before clipping into the downrigger release. This allows the least amount of slack to the rod after a fish hooks up and pulls the line from the release. Of course, I reel up all the tension so the rod loads up well. I have...

I'm with Bob, I do not see the harm in dumping urine overboard. Think about the dilution factor when dumping 8-12 oz in millions of gallons of water. If we put a composting head in, I would not transport urine to dump in a "safe" place, but would dump when water is over 50 feet deep. Call me...

For hauling shrimp pots, I use an Ace Line Hauler mounted on a Scotty downrigger swivel mount. I usually just stack square pots on the starboard side in the corner. Crab pots are the same, still using the Ace Line Hauler, but just the pulley at the end of the davit. Only use the motor if...

We've had 4 C-Dorys. 2000 22 Cruiser (2009-2014) 2005 25 Cruiser (2014-2019) 1985 22 Classic (2019) 1987 22 Cruiser (2021-Present) The 87 is our fishing boat, repowered and newer electronics from previous owner. She's a real workhorse!

Here is a link from Renogy that includes a video with a pictorial diagram. https://renogy.com/dcc50s-12v-50a-dc-dc ... with-mppt/ This is from an earlier discussion. Excellent, IMHO, diagram using the Renogy DC-DC equipment: http://www.c-brats.com/viewtopic.php?t= ... c&start=30

A big THANK YOU to Gary and Colleen of DayBreak for an excellent 2022 Friday Harbor CBGT!!! Kim and I, along with Sunshine, had a great time and the weather cooperated for us on Friday and Saturday. Pat and Patty Anderson and Steve Pettyjohn put together a really fun trivia quiz. Michael and...

That is quite the trip you have planned and we all will be following along on your adventures! Hope you are able to post reports along the way!

Oh Nooooo! Do you remember what slip on the H Dock the truck went down on? Several of us have fishing rods, so we could try to retrieve the truck! Patrick

Congratulations on your purchase! Cecilia is a beautiful boat!

If getting from the factory, I wonder if you could tow your boat up with one of your old tanks removed. Then you could take the new tank for that side of the boat out and try it on for size. That way you would know if it fits or not. I bet they would do that for a C-Brat, they're pretty darn...

Yes, sorry for the delay. The rear height of the tanks in my boat are 12".

SSOBOL, You are correct on adhering starboard, I stand corrected. This product will work G Flex 650 https://fiberglasssupply.com/8oz-kit-g- ... st-system/

I have read that starboard does not work as epoxy will not adhere to it, thus thus the suggestion of using pvc lumber available at home depot or lowes. I overdrilled, filled with epoxy and inverted ss machine screws into deck and reinstalled the bulkhead piece that previous owner installed. The...
